There's a manual that comes with your console, read it, it will tell you what you need.

Take a router that has more than one link in the back, have 4 cables that connect to the back of the xbox's to the router, make sure the router is pluged in, and you should be all set! If you need it in more detail, ask me! I'll answer ;)

------------------------------------------------- System link play With system link play, you can connect two or more Xbox 360 consoles together to play a multiplayer match. Xbox 360 can support up to 16 consoles for system link play. Before you set up a system link match, you have to confirm some items: * The game that you want to play has to support system link play. Look at the back of the game box to verify that the system link icon appears on the box. The game box or the game manual will tell you how many players can play a system link match for the game that you want to play. Note Many games support split-screen multiplayer gameplay. In split-screen multiplayer gameplay, multiple controllers connect to one Xbox 360 console and to one TV. * You have one TV for each Xbox 360 console. * You have the standard Ethernet (RJ45) cables and networking devices to connect the consoles together. Connect two Xbox 360 consoles together for a system link match 1. Turn off the power to both Xbox 360 consoles. 2. Connect an Ethernet (RJ45) cable to the Ethernet port on the back of each Xbox 360 console. 3. Connect each Xbox 360 console to a separate TV. 4. Follow the game instructions for multiplayer gameplay to start playing. Connect more than two Xbox 360 consoles together for a system link match Note To connect more than two consoles together, you must use Ethernet cables and an Ethernet hub, a switch, or a router. Contact a local computer retailer or an online computer store for Ethernet cables and other networking devices. 1. Turn off the power to each Xbox 360 console. 2. Connect each Xbox 360 console to a separate TV. 3. Connect each Xbox 360 console to the hub by using an Ethernet cable. 4. Turn on the hub, turn on the Xbox 360 consoles, and then follow the game instructions for multiplayer gameplay to start playing. Wireless connection You can also connect two or more Xbox 360 consoles together for system link play using the Xbox 360 Wireless Networking Adapter. Note If you do not have a wireless router, you can still connect the consoles together for system link play using Ad-Hoc as the selection. Up to four Xbox 360 consoles can be connected using the Ad-Hoc selection. ---------------------------------------------------------- http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910583 Next Time Use Google First Hope this helped.

Some TVs have enough inputs to support multiple devices. But if you only have one or two inputs on your TV, you may want to get a component video / audio selector. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1524181&CatId=466
